The {\em topological symmetry group} of an embedding $\Gamma$ of an abstract graph $\gamma$ in $S^3$ is the group of automorphisms of $\gamma$ which can be realized by homeomorphisms of the pair $(S^3, \Gamma)$. These groups are motivated…

Groups $\Pi_k(X;\sigma)$ of "flagged homotopies" are introduced of which the usual (abelian for $k>1$) homotopy groups $\pi_k(X;p)$ is the limit case for flags $\sigma$ contracted to a point $p$. Calculus of exterior forms with values in…

Given a (singular, codimension 1) holomorphic foliation F on a complex projective manifold X, we study the group PsAut(X, F) of pseudo-automorphisms of X which preserve F ; more precisely, we seek sufficient conditions for a finite index…

Local models are schemes which are intended to model the \'etale-local structure of p-adic integral models of Shimura varieties. Pappas and Zhu have recently given a general group-theoretic construction of flat local models with parahoric…

This paper is a continuation of our paper math.AG/0006222. We study the reduction of certain PEL Shimura varieties with parahoric level structure at primes p at which the group that defines the Shimura variety ramifies. We describe "good"…

We give a precise classification, in terms of Shimura data, of all 1-dimensional Shimura subvarieties of a moduli space of polarized abelian varieties.

We investigate generalizations along the lines of the Mordell--Lang conjecture of the author's $p$-adic formal Manin--Mumford results for $n$-dimensional $p$-divisible formal groups $\mathcal{F}$. In particular, given a finitely generated…

A few facts concerning the phrase "the automorphism groups become larger at special points of the moduli of K3 surfaces" are presented. It is also shown that the automorphism groups are of infinite order over a dense subset in any…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $0$ and $\mathcal{M}_d$ the moduli space of rational maps on $\mathbb{P}^1$ of degree $d$ over $k$. This paper describes the automorphism loci $A\subset \mathrm{Rat}_d$ and…

We classify the symplectic automorphism groups for cubic fourfolds. The main inputs are the global Torelli theorem for cubic fourfolds and the classification of the fixed-point sublattices of the Leech lattice. Among the highlights of our…

Under the condition that the Prym map is injective in characteristic $p$, we prove that the special subvarieties in the moduli space of abelian varieties of dimension $l$ and polarization type $D$, $A_{l,D}$, arising from families of…

We prove autoduality for curves of compact type and, more generally, treelike curves with planar singularities. More precisely, we produce an isomorphism between the generalized Jacobian of such a curve and the connected component of the…

In this paper, we develop a new method to classify abelian automorphism groups of hypersurfaces. We use this method to classify (Theorem 4.2) abelian groups that admit a liftable action on a smooth cubic fourfold. A parallel result (Theorem…

We study the groups of biholomorphic and bimeromorphic automorphisms of conic bundles over certain compact complex manifolds of algebraic dimension zero.

We describe Baily-Borel, toroidal, and geometric -- using the KSBA stable pairs -- compactifications of some moduli spaces of K3 surfaces with a nonsymplectic automorphism of order $3$ and $4$ for which the fixed locus of the automorphism…

This paper generalises previous work of the author to the setting of overconvergent $p$-adic automorphic forms for a definite quaternion algebra over a totally real field. We prove results which are analogues of classical `level raising'…

For a curve $X$ of genus $>1$ defined over a finite field, we present a criterion which allows us to state the non existence of automorphisms of order a power of a rational prime. We show how this criterion can be used to determine the…

This is a largely expository article based on our previous work on arithmetic diagonal cycles on unitary Shimura varieties. We define a class of Shimura varieties closely related to unitary groups which represent a moduli problem of abelian…

The aim of this paper is to construct formal normal forms for the class of topologically quasi-homogeneous foliations under generic conditions. Any such normal form is given as the sum of three terms: an initial generic quasi-homogeneous…

We construct local charts for the ramified cusps of the Hilbert modular variety of level $\Gamma_1(\mathfrak{c},\mathfrak{n})$. This allows us, following closely M. Rapoport and C.-L. Chai, to construct arithmetic toroidal and minimal…
